Majorities Think Global Warming is Happening

While a majority of Americans – two in three (63%) – say global warming is happening, Catholics are more likely to believe it is (69%). Moreover, Catholics are more likely than other American Christians such as non-Evangelical Protestants (62%) and Evangelicals (51%) to think global warming is happening, suggesting the Pope’s statements on the matter will resonate with Catholics.
